Alphabet and BMW Financial Services are sister organisations within the BMW Group and some supporting functions and services are already shared between the two companies. Both businesses are also regulated by the FCA.

Earlier this year, Alphabet partnered with engineering and construction firm – J Murphy & Sons – as its new company car fleet partner.

Murphy employees will have access to a variety of electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs). Under the agreement, Alphabet will provide the company with full fleet funding alongside damage reporting, roadside assistance, tyre replacements and mileage tracking.

Mike Carpenter, managing director at Murphy Plant, said: “We’re really excited to be entering into this new partnership with Alphabet. At Murphy, we pride ourselves on doing what we can to reduce our impact on the world around us.”
